FAQs
What is the primary function of a rod clevis?
A rod clevis is an accessory used to connect the rod of a pneumatic or hydraulic cylinder to a linkage or other mechanical component, allowing for linear motion to be translated into other forms of motion or to drive a mechanism.
What does ISO 8140/DIN 71752 mean for this product?
This means the rod clevis is manufactured to meet specific international standards for dimensions, tolerances, and performance, ensuring it can be reliably interchanged with other components that also meet these standards.
Can this rod clevis be used with cylinders other than 12mm bore size?
No, this specific Festo rod clevis (SG-M12) is designed and optimized for use with pneumatic cylinders that have a 12mm bore size.
What is the MPN for this Festo Rod Clevis?
The Manufacturer Part Number (MPN) for this Festo Rod Clevis is SG-M12.
How do I ensure a secure connection?
Ensure the rod end is clean, properly aligned, and use the recommended fastening hardware. Tighten all connections to the specified torque values for your actuator system.
What type of maintenance is required?
Regular visual inspection for wear or damage is recommended. Clean with a dry or slightly damp cloth and avoid harsh chemicals. Lubrication may be necessary for pivot points depending on the specific clevis design and operating environment.
Troubleshooting
Difficulty attaching clevis to rod
Ensure the rod end is clean and within the specified 12mm bore compatibility. Verify correct alignment and that no foreign objects are obstructing the connection. Check if the correct fastening hardware is being used.
Loose connection or play in the joint
Re-tighten the fastening mechanism securing the clevis to the rod. Inspect both the clevis and the rod end for any signs of wear or damage that might be causing looseness. Ensure the clevis is rated for the load and motion it is subjected to.
Noise or vibration during operation
Check for proper lubrication of any pivot points. Ensure the clevis is securely fastened and that there is no excessive wear. Verify that the clevis is the correct type and size for the application and that the overall actuator system is functioning correctly.
Pros and Cons

- Requires compatibility with ISO 8140/DIN 71752 standards.
- May require specific tooling for installation.
Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup: To install the Festo Rod Clevis SG-M12, ensure the pneumatic cylinder rod is clean and free of debris. Align the clevis eye with the rod end and secure it using the appropriate fastening method (typically a threaded connection or retaining pin as per cylinder design). Ensure all connections are tightened to the manufacturer's recommended torque specifications.
Compatibility: This rod clevis is specifically designed for pneumatic cylinders with a 12mm bore size. It conforms to ISO 8140/DIN 71752 standards, ensuring compatibility with other components adhering to these same international specifications. Verify that your actuator and associated hardware meet these standards before installation.
Care: Regular inspection for wear or damage is recommended. Clean the clevis with a dry or slightly damp cloth as needed. Avoid using abrasive cleaners or solvents that could degrade the material. In harsh environments, consider periodic lubrication of the pivot point if applicable to the clevis design.
